"Do you hear that?" she asked the collective group. It was a beautiful melody, and it mesmerized her a moment, but then it faded away as quickly as it faded in. Maybe she was just hearing things. She shook her head as if to clear it, then cast one last spell on the trident. "No harmful magic detected," she said at last, then picked it up to hand to Adam. "If you can take this down to Level Nine, then we can make sure the shell is free and clear as well." Then they could hand it off to Environmental for their own research. "Hear vhat?" Adam asked, head swiveling around the room as if he was trying to see what they were talking about. He stuck a finger in his ear and gave it a wiggle. Dear Albert Magnus, he better not be loosing his hearing. Usually it was pretty good (when he wasn't asleep). Not as good as his sense of smell, but it was still pretty good.
He was still 'looking' around the room when he heard Kendra give him in the all clear. He held out his hands. He nearly dropped it, not expecting it to be so heavy and then heft it onto his shoulder. A moment later a strange sound filled his senses. He blinked, gave his head a shake and then cleared his throat. "Right - off now. Let me know if you need anyzzingk ---- else." He got distracted by the sound again. Maybe they were wrong about that conch, he thought as he marched out with the trident over his shoulder.
